I saw the post they’re referencing, and it was a lot more heated than they’re making it out to be. It was ultimately resolved, but it would definitely qualify as drama imo
I was part of that discussion. There was an ongoing attribution issue where a person claimed their open source project wasn’t being attributed correctly (where it looks like kbin is forked from another older project)
With the Reddit migration and a range of other issues, old mate who manages kbin didn’t get around to fixing the attribution (choosing to focus on getting the server stable and fixing actual issues)
It got brough up again last week in a not so flattering post and within a day or two it was resolved (putting to bed the idea that old mate is actually out to steal people’s code)
Not a great situation overall but it’s great it’s been resolved 🦙🦙🦙
It’s a great place, everyone’s been smashing through tickets getting things improved, but like with all open source stuff it takes a while to push out the good stuff
Seriously, I must’ve hit the jackpot or something picking instances because it’s been pretty much nothing but a stable, drama-free experience for me there
Me on Kbin watching fediverse drama
It’s nice here, but we aren’t totally safe from drama either. In the Kbin Codeberg for example, issue #196 attracted the ire of another developer
Care to elaborate what was said?
It’s not overly long or complicated but here’s a summary:
Original: Codeberg Kbin/kbin-core, Issue #196
I need to take my blood pressure medication now. Thanks a lot.

Kbin uses codeberg? I might move to kbin because they’re chad

Plus the image caching issue sometimes leads to hilarious results
Theres drama?
Kbin is part of the Fediverse, 𝖄𝖔𝖚’𝖗𝖊 𝖔𝖓𝖊 𝖔𝖋 𝖚𝖘 𝖓𝖔𝖜
Don’t forget people on single user instances too! It feels pretty good watching drama and not having to worry about how this affects me.
